Potential physiological mechanisms behind variation in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) to biosynthesize EPA and DHA when reared on plant oil replacement feeds by Ken Overturf, Jason Abernathy, Dietmar Kültz, Jacob Bledsoe, Shawn Narum, Thomas Welker

“…The omega-3 fatty acids, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6n-3) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5n-3), are of primary concern as they provide significant health benefits such as reducing inflammation and improving heart and health function. However, the DHA; 22:6n-3 and EPA; 20:5n-3 available for aquaculture feeds is primarily provided by fish oil which is already limited in availability and expensive, and dietary lipids are consistently being replaced with oil sourced from plants. …”

Improved Artificial Bee Colony Optimization Underwater Localization Algorithm by Logistic Chaos Mapping and Differential Evolution by Jiaxing CHEN, Yang LIU, Xiaoqian LIU, Zhihua LIU

“…Once the algorithms had reached a state of stability, the average localization error of the LDIABC algorithm was also the lowest, which indicated that the LDIABC algorithm effectively solved the issues present in the traditional artificial bee colony algorithm. In terms of the success rate of node localization, the LDIABC algorithm exhibits a higher success rate than the Tent-IABC, ELOABC, CODEGWO and SAPSO algorithms, with a success rate of up to 95%. …”

Distal radial artery ligation for dialysis access-associated ischemic syndrome by ZHANG Li-hong, ZHAN Shen, YANG Tao, WANG Yu-zhu

“…Objective To summarize the experience of treatment for dialysis access-associated ischemic steal syndrome by ligating distal radial artery of radial cephalic fistulas(RCFs).Methods We enrolled hemodialysis patients who used RCFs with complaint of ipsilateral limb ischemia admitted in our department Anatomical prerequisites(side-to-end anastomosis fistula and retrograde flow in the distal radial artery) were checked by ultrasound,the patency of central artery by angiography,and the function of ulnar artery by Allen test Division and ligation of the juxta-anastomosis distal radial artery were performed under regional anesthesia.Clinical presentation,blood flow during hemodialysis,urea clearance index,urea reduction rate,and fistula patency were observed before and after operation.Results This study included 16 patients(8 males and 8 females,accounting for roughly 1.45%of hospitalizations of patients associated with fistula complications at the corresponding time) who underwent DRAL of RCFs with ischemia,of whom the mean age was(66.2 ± 11.2) years,fistula age was(57.75 ± 88.41) months,and the ischemia was detected(39.62 ± 58.31) months after the construction of fistula.According to clinical presentation,71.40%patients were grade Ⅲ,28.60%were grade Ⅱ,and no patients belonged to grade Ⅳ.The technique success rate was 100%and clinical success rate was 93.7%.Blood flow during hemodialysis before and 7 days,6 months and 12 months after operation was(258.63 + 25.44),(246.61 ± 24.24),(260.42 ± 20.83) and(254.87 ± 22.44) ml/min(P>0.05),and Kt/V was(1.65 ± 0.210),(1.59 +0.24),(1.62±0.28) and(1.58 ±0.39)(P>0.05),respectively.The mean follow-up duration was(19.30 ± 13.15) months and the patency rate was 100%.Conclusions DRAL is a simple,safe,and effective technique for dialysis access-associated ischemic syndrome in RCFs.…”
